SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION
The annual convention of the Berke-
ley county Sunday School Association
was held on Tuesday last In Trinity
Episcopal Church. The convention
was called to order at 10 O'Clock, A.
NJ, by the President, the Rev. f. NJ.
Woods, and the minutes of the last
meeting read and approved by the
secretary. The topics set forth for
discussion were ably presented by the
respective gentlemen selected for the
purpose, and the various subjects
were also elaborated by others. The
proceedings were very interesting
but not as largely attended by county
delegates as was expected or desired.
All persons interested in Sunday
School work would find il very in
structive to attend these meetings.
Reports were handed in from twenty
three schools in the county, which
showed an aggregate membership of
2,647 with an average attendance of
nevolent and missionary objects. In
addition to the schools reported to
this convention there are others that
reported to the last meeting but not
to this which would bring the Sunday
School membership of the county to
1916. When it is stated that there
are 5000 persons in the county be-
tween and q years of age, it will
readily be seen that there is ample
room for increased Sunday School
and Missionary work /; and there is
plenty of room, also, for more zeal
and vigor in the prosecution of the
work. A vote of thanks to the Rev.
r. D. Roller for the use of his church,
and to the church choir for their assis-
lance, was passed.

r AIDES, MISSES AND CHILDREN IS
ia WRAPS.-To say that we have the
largest and best selected line of wraps
that we have ever had or has ever been
brought to this city is not saying too
much. We would call your attention to
the fact that our ladies' wraps are all
new with the exception of ten which we
carried over from last year, so when you
see our stock you will not see a lot of last
years, that we could not sell. but we will
show you new. fresh goods and styles.
Then again, they are so much cheaper
than last year. New Markets that sold
at So we can now sell you at So, and so
on. The newest and most stylish are the
Plaid Jackets. Rough Boucle Cloth wraps
are not worn this season. In fine wraps,
Silk Plush will be the most popular, we
have them from 81 up. For Misses, short
Plaid Jackets and New Markets are the
thing, and in children's, the long Plaid
Cloaks will be the most desirable. We
have always had the reputation of selling
the best and cheapest wraps and we in
tend to maintain it as we are now better
prepared than ever to do so. We can
give you elegant light so you can see what
you arc buying. All we ask is for you
to call and see what we have before you
buy as we defy any one to beat our prices
either in this market or any other.

WHAT AM TO D07

The symptoms of Biliousness are I'M
happily but too we'll known. They differ
in different individuals to some extent.
A Bilious man is seldom breakfast eater.
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of
a morning. His tongue will hardly bear
inspection at any time if it is not white
and furred, it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out OF
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may
be symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often Hemmorrhoids or even
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acidity or flatu'
lence and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. To correct all this if not effect
a cure try Green's august Ftacer, it cost
but trifle and thousands attest its eff
cacy

Pictorial Concord comes to an end
with its old house and many memen.
tos of patriotism and genius.
The year has been rich one. We
look with expectation-What can the
new year bring to surpass it! But
we have a hint in the Premium List,
a wonderful document. We never
saw such list. SO generous handling

They strolled along through the wood
together,
A manly youth and maiden fair,
Gathering leaves, in the autumn
weather,
Tinted with colors most rich and
rare.
He said You are much like the
autumn leaves,
With your cheeks of red and your
hair of gold;
And your heart the frost that the leaf
receives
Ere its hues are seen, for your
heart is cold"
The maiden answers, 1t may be so
You've known me long, and per-
haps you know best.
But the frozen leaf soon thaws, you
know,
After tits gathered and properly
pressed"
